Some_chap8_figures is a repository for scripts producing a subset of IPCC/AR6/WG1 figures, mainly for Chapter 8, but also for some figures of the Technical Summary. It only deals with figures derived using CMIP6 multi-model outputs

Version tagged AR6_and_CMIP5 was checked to reproduce results included in the 6th IPCC/WGI Assessment Report. It relies on CAMMAC release AR6_and_CMIP5 (see below)

These scripts have been used on the CLIMERI-France data and computing platform for actually producing these figures:

  • in chapter 8 : 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 21, 25, 26, Box2-f1
  • in the Technical Summary : 12, and two panels of 7-f1

These scripts make heavy use of CAMMAC, which development was parallel to IPCC/AR6/WGI timeline; they just set parameters for CAMMAC notebooks and do launch them using a CAMMAC launch script. Documentation for these parameters is provided in CAMMAC documentation for each notebook. The recommended compatible CAMMAC release is tagged AR6_and_CMIP5. CAMMAC in turn makes heavy use of CliMAF

Also provided is a dictionnary of the CMIP6 data that where available on the above platform on 31 january 2021, with sufficient temporal coverage; such a dictionnary in instrumental for the figure scripts; the one provided was actually used for AR6 figures; when wishing to use it elsewhere, one should only keep those dictionnary entries corresponding to locally available data

The script's software requirements are limited to those of CAMMAC

The installation consists in:

  • downloading the scripts : git clone https://github.com/senesis/some_chap8_figures.git
  • installing CliMAF and CAMMAC (this includes tuning $CAMMAC/jobs/job_env.sh)
  • tuning parameter file scripts/common_parameters.yaml according to your CAMMAC install

When executing a script:

  • first set the environment as described in CAMMAC doc (see section 'Batch...'; you basically have to set environment varables CLIMAF and CAMMAC)
  • a figure-specific directory is created locally. It will contain an execution trace (as a notebook with output cells), and for most scripts two directories:
    • figures : contains single panel figures, a multi-panel figure, and metadata files which list the data used
    • cache : contains the data used as input of the figure plot phase

If scripts are launched with argument 'True', they actually run on a test case

Script run_all_scripts.sh is used for launching all scripts (possibly in test case mode), but excepting the few dedicated to figure plot step only;

In their present shape, scripts execution uses a CAMMAC utility, $CAMMAC/jobs/job_pm.sh, which launches a PBS job using qsub. This job itself executes a notebook using 'papermill' (see CAMMAC requirements).

When designing a script similar to those provided : please take note that script $CAMMAC/jobs/job_pm.sh uses a file 'common_parameters.yaml', and will search it using the scheme described in that script's comments.
